OPEN AIR HOUSES

HOUSES AND ROOMS THAT OPEN TO THE GREAT OUTDOORS!

Apparently there are places on this earth without bugs...or snakes, or small furry rodents, or heat and humidity that can turn your bones to pudding in the amount of time it takes to walk to the mailbox, or barking dogs, crime or air pollution. None of these places are Virginia.I love the idea of an open air house, or even a single open air room. Braxton and I are enjoying every possible minute on our patio these days because the oppressive heat and humidity will soon be here, along with mosquitos big as wasps.I've found you some fabulous pics of open air dwellings, some seem to be with out walls or windows, some can obviously be closed up when necessary. All are dreamy. Enjoy!

Do you live in a place where you can open up your house with out screens? Where is such a place? May I come and live with you?Have a beautiful day.yancey

Indoor/outdoor rooms are becoming more popular, as is the furniture to fill them. I love the idea of making outdoor spaces more comfortable as an extension of the living space for a smaller home or apartment. Cool post! Love Brax
